Solving crime is a huge concern for our society, but it should not be accomplished by violating our privacy. Instead, we should focus on improving society so that people don’t have the reason to become criminals in the first place.

There are so many questions to be asked about this legislation; it's about control, it's poorly implemented and dystopian in its execution, and it certainly is not solely about protecting children. But in the end of the day, it looks like the freedom of the world wide web will be the new digital albatross nobody had ever dreamed it would be.
